What are three reasons brutus betrayed caesar

Brutus had always been a loyal supporter of Julius Caesar and was considered his close friend. However, Cassius was able to convince Brutus that Caesar wished to rule Rome as a monarch. Being an honorable man, Brutus makes the difficult decision to join the conspirators. Julius Caesar is completely caught off guard on the Senate floor and does not expect Brutus to betray him, which is why some of his last words are "Et tu, Bruté?" "And you, Brutus?" Julius Caesar trusted that Brutus was a loyal friend, similar to Mark Antony, and was astonished to discover that Brutus betrayed him.
